Significant use of technologies in digital education

Abstract

The expression digital technological literacy has been increasingly used in the educational environment to characterize a learning prototype specifically of writing that involves signs, gestures and procedures necessary for the individual to be able to read and write on the computer, notebook and/or other digital devices.

According to Educação (2022), the meaning of its noun in the Portuguese language is: "training or training of new generations according to the cultural ideals of each people". However, it is necessary that within education it is of the new generations as well as the oldest, when having contact with the internet, digital education both for parental guidance and for the physical experience of children in the world/family that they are inserted in at birth.

Are we able to think of literacy done with digital tools? Bringing it to the context of literacy and literacy, the various digital equipment bring new ways of thinking in relation to the production, communication, propagation and dissemination of the writings of those involved that are inserted in the context of digital education that is being presented at the time of transmission of this new knowledge.

This indispensability is so that we can bring to everyone the continuous loving orientation for interaction with respect, ethics and integrity also to the digital world, so that we will have posts, videos, stories, vlogs, blogs, etc. that take into account the kindness in treating as it is done "live and in color" and we have delicacy in conducting conversations to generate records and meaningful memories for the normal days as well as for the special ones without the face of the "naked truth" and raw" or "more sincere opinion" which in fact, often comes with: lack of tolerance, absence of empathy/respect and lapse of kindness when treating others.

In addition to the lack of patience and hate speech that occurs in abundance on the internet, it is necessary to include in those who circulate in this digital environment the awareness of the dangers that travel in it, that is, in this environment not everything is roses and just as we have traffic education about circulation on the streets, it is also necessary that the cognitive process for digital education is done in the various nuclei that the person is part of and brings with him in the their experience, such as in the family, at school, in the community, at university or at work.

Therefore, it is important to teach digital technologies in the literacy of children, adolescents and young people so that we have future adults who are digitally literate, not just users of electronic devices. The need for digital ethics must be imbued with them, in addition to the playful possibility that will be included in the literacy learning environment, in addition to the virtual and sensory experiences that technologies can bring. So the use of digital technologies in literacy brings with it the possibility of mixing: calculus, spelling, arts, environment, geography, history, technology, body and many others; each other so that the gain is in all fields: cognitive, socio-emotional, bodily and transcendental; so that knowledge and skills involve all the intelligences of the human being, not only those most required by society such as Portuguese and mathematics.
